Hawick, Vanners and Robert Noble – Duchamp factories

Good friend Eric Musgrave – author of Sharp Suits among other things – has got a great job, going around the country making films of all the factories where Duchamp has its products made. It’s almost as good as my excuse of writing a book about them. I’m not sure I could present to camera quite as effectively as Eric though; I prefer staying the other side of it.

Here we have Hawick cashmere, Robert Noble and Vanners ties. You can find more from Eric at the Duchamp TV site. Enjoy.

It’s hard to respond on behalf of all the products, but my experience has been that they are generally well made, but the aesthetic is often not to my taste. If that appeals to you, certainly worth a try
